CoD: Black Ops Annihilation DLC dated for PS3 [Update]

[Update] A new pre-order listing on Steam has revealed that the Annihilation map pack for Call of Duty: Black Ops will release for PC gamers on July 28th. [End of Update]

After having been released exclusively for Xbox 360 owners in late June, the Annihilation multiplayer map pack for Call of Duty: Black Ops has today been given a late July release date for PlayStation 3, coinciding with a double XP weekend to celebrate.

Starting July 28th, those of you who own the PS3 version of Black Ops will be able to download Annihilation from the PlayStation Store and gain access to four all-new multiplayer maps and a brand new zombie mode level, descriptions of which you can find below:

Drive-In:

?This one-time American movie paradise once showed war movies; now it?s the location for one. The holes in the screen have been filled with snipers. The popcorn is stale, but they?re still serving up hot lead in the concession stand. ?Drive-In is a small map, very fast paced,? says Treyarch?s Online Director, Dan Bunting (the nice bearded man from all those behind-the-scenes videos). ?It?s similar to Nuketown in that it?s a fast, close-quarters map.??

Hazard:

?Ah, the Cuban good life! This swanky golf course features lush greens, oceanic driving ranges, and long-range sniping opportunities straight down its deadly fairway. Never mind getting a hole in one ? try not to get lots of holes in you. Those skilled with assault rifles and sniper rifles will enjoy this one.?

Silo:

?If you?ve ever said to yourself, ?This is a great map, but what it really needs are missiles launching right next to my ear, so every time I line up to snipe someone, I pee myself instead? ? and really, who hasn?t? ? this is the map for you. Muddy sloped terrain, a smattering of construction equipment, and a few carefully placed sniper towers make this military outpost a tactical challenge regardless of game type.?

Hangar 18:

?This one?s a tribute to the Groom Lake military base where the government developed the SR-71 Blackbird ? or, depending on the conspiracy theories you choose to believe, where they stored a recovered alien spacecraft. Either way, you?ll be in an out of buildings frequently here, not to mention using a multi-million-dollar piece of reconnaissance aircraft for cover. But that?s not the only secret project it?s hiding. ?Hangar 18 has a couple of fun easter eggs,? hints Bunting. ?I can?t talk about them because it would ruin them.??

Shangri-La:

?Welcome to the jungle, where the Zombies have taken over an ancient shrine. But be extra careful ? the environment?s many hidden tricks and deadly traps can be used against you as easily as your undead enemies. ?It?s one of the more creative and clever map designs we?ve got so far,? says Bunting with pride. ?The diehard fans are really going to appreciate the story hooks in this one as well.?
